October 2018 Tokyo Day 4 – Mugi to Olive (Clam Ramen)

My daughter and I didn’t plan to eat here but two other ramen shops we wanted to try and went to were closed so we ended up here. The shop is also Michelin rated. I can’t remember what each of us ordered but mine had sardines and her’s did not. What I remember is that…

October 2018 Tokyo Day #3

During the planning of this trip both my daughter and I am aware that Tsukiji market will be closing and so we wanted to experience it at least once. Not the auction but rather eating there 🙂 When we arrived we thought the queue was short (second store from right) but realized later that those…

October 2018 Tokyo Day 3 – Ichiran Ramen

Ichiran is one of the ramen places we wanted to try and thankfully, no significant wait time for our eating experience. They even have a place where you can leave your luggage. By this time we are used to the routine of ordering/paying via machine. But you are still provided an order sheet to indicate…

October 2018 Tokyo Day 3 – Nakiryu

My daughter and I both like ramen and we wanted to try a few Michelin rated ramen places in Tokyo. Nakiryu is one of those we wanted to try. Getting to this place during the night requires navigating some dimly lit alleys and streets so it will be better if you’re with a companion or…

Kichitora Bonifacio Global City Taguig

[2018-11-29] This Japanese ramen restaurant takes pride in serving delicious savory poultry based broth. While waiting for others to arrive, we were served some… Gyoza – meaty filling. Soft, thinner skin/wrap compared to others and with some crunch on the fried side and… Karaage – soft crunchy coating with tender and moist meat. I wonder…

Ramen Daisho Pleasant Hills Mandaluyong

We hailed a cab right after the passenger alighted near Hypermarket. The smelled deliciously of French fries. A female in the…
